Sayin isn't a runner so there's no need to want to force him to stay in the pocket. I think yesterday the defense was initially more concerned with Underwood running so they wanted to let him try to sling it. Hopefully the front 4 can drink a little of Michael's secret stuff before the game but otherwise an extra man or 2 will need to introduce themselves to Sayin via blitz. Smith will still likely have a productive day but ideally doesn't break the last 2 records he doesn't hold at OSU.

Their rushing attack is not that impressive, but holy hell, 217 yards receiving last week against a decent to solid Illinois team is something else.
Hire a midget professional wrestler. Dress him as a mini Herky. Sneak him on the field, and have him run up and punch Jeremiah Smith right in the dick..........


Problem solved.

You have to play Lutmer over the top of Him and take Him away, Make OSU beat You without Him as the primary weapon , There is no other gameplan that makes sense and You better be able to get pressure with the front 4 , Iowa's OL needs to find Their nuts and open holes because Iowa holding the football is the best defense and only way to probably win the game unless OSU gifts multiple turnovers and makes a lot of mistakes ,

I can't think of a way that doesn't include a 15-yard penalty and a Hawk getting tossed from the game.

In the M*A*S*H film's football game, they surreptitiously give an on-field injection to the opponent's key player, "Superbug." It would only be fitting that a team called the Hawkeyes would try it.

They have at least two RBs better than anyone on Iowa's roster and the D line got bullied yesterday. Hawks will probably need to score 35 to have a chance
Not going to disagree, I do think Hiter and Marshall are a better combo than both Jacksons. I am fairly certain that OSU has a better Oline than Michigan.

See Bill Murray's solution for Judge Smailes in "Caddyshack". Smith? "He'll quit the game".

KF: "That's good help, hawkeyebob1962. And I'm gonna call ya if I need that help" Later: "Thanks for the dope"

Do what happened to Lawrence Taylor in his prime. Story goes player for opposing team bought him an escort and told her to keep him up all night partying with some blow.

funny thing with that story it still didn’t slow down LT the next day who’s till had some sacks.

I'd press cover him strait up with our most physical DB with linebacker shading an inside zone, and then I'd have safety help over the top. Force him to catch balls over the middle where he knows he's going to get hit.
